Right-click function not working as advertised

I am using a 2006 league that I converted in midseason (yeah, bad idea), but I don't think that this matters in this case.

In 2007, go to any list (say a team roster), click on a player name. The player page will have what the help file describes as "quick-flicks" (see the Interface and Controls page) in the upper right hand corner. This allows you to scroll through the players without going back to the roster screen. Click on a Quick-Flick to open the next player's page.

In all previous versions of OOTP, if you right clicked while looking at this new player page, you were taken back to the original list (in our example the roster screen).

In 2007, this now takes you to the previous player page you were looking at.

Summary:
1. Go to Seattle roster page.
2. Click on F. Hernandez to go to player page.
3. Click on Quick-Flick to go to H. Ramirez player page.

OLD OOTP:
4. Right click to move back to Seattle roster page.

OOTP 2007
4. Right click moves you back to F. Hernandez player page.
The relevant part of the help file:

The right-click button has one other important function, called quick return. On most pages, right-clicking in an area of the page without a hyperlink returns you to the previous page. For example, if you delve from the Roster into a specific Player Profile, right-clicking on the Player Profile page will send you back to the Roster page.
This makes it a pain when you have been using many quick flicks. I have ended up holding down my right mouse button for 10 seconds until I'm back at the original list.

[An Aside: I don't post very much on these boards, but if I have interface suggestions/feature requests for 2007, do I post them here?]
